"An ancient scroll tells the story of a unlucky merchant who, after making a pact with a sinister Yokai, achieved fame and fortune, he even became the financial advisor of the imperial palace, but once he was on the top, the yokai collected his part of the deal, taking from him his fame, fortune and his sanity.

[@josephperez2004]

Fun Fact: The reason purple is associated with wealth is because while many dyes could be extracted from plants or other sources one could cultivate, purple dye was only really available from a dozen or so species of certain shellfish (most famously snails in Rome). So getting purple dye was an excruciatingly long and arduous process of harvesting thousands of these shellfish just for a few ounces of dye. A robe dyed completely purple likely cost a small fortune until more advanced methods and synthetic options were available.

[@Tr0lliPop]

rich yet poor

[@trigger5258]

Trigger’s Yokai/historical figure database: Ningyō Shōnin The Ningyō Shōnin was a yokai said to take the form of a very short man, wearing a contradictory purple silk Kimono and ratty old straw hat. (The contradiction being purple dye being very expensive, whilst straw hats were typically warn by rice farmers, who were peasants.) if one looked closely they could also see faint green strings extending to the sky. This Yokai was often said to have strange speech patterns, its voice changing between words, often combining multiple words together, attempting to sell those it encountered random junk. The Ningyō Shōnin would often seek the souls of humans, believing it could make itself a successful merchant should it obtain one and cut its strings. One of the many origins for this yokai is the tale of a Merchant whom rose to have several Samurai and Daimyō as customers, even having one of the three great unifiers of Japan, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, as his patron. His success being attributed to his dealings with Yokai, whom passed him letters with mercantile advice. However, his success soon quickly collapsed after he began selling bad goods to the Daimyō. Most tellings attributing a trusted Samurai of Hideyoshi’s death being caused by a sword the merchant sold him breaking. Infamous for his temper that also caused the death of Sen no Rikyu, Hideyoshi had the merchant boiled in oil in retribution. When Hideyoshi’s men searched the merchant’s home to repossess the lavish furnishings, they found the alleged letters from the yokai, containing nothing more than seemingly meaningless scribbles.

i do not believe it is a yokai, but rather it is a 'hannya' mask, a jealous female demon, when these masks or portrayed in red, it is to symbolizes fully giving to evil, to your most primal and basic urges, and completely giving up any semblance or humanity, or civility. here though his mask is a deep shade of gray, which usually symbolizes, that this is before the woman has been scorned, smaller horns, and still human-esque. although this may sound very dark, the word 'hannya' in japanese actually means wisdom, and the masks are considered good luck, used to ward off evil.

[@funkromers2980]

Once upon a time, there was an unfortunate merchant living in Japan. He looked like a short old man wearing glasses with purple and yellow glasses and smoking a small kiseru. He often carried a katana with him, on the handle of which the inscription [[FREEDOM]] was engraved. At that time, the merchant suffered constant setbacks. At the market, no one noticed his products at all. Market visitors paid no attention. But on the day when all the merchants came together, the unfortunate merchant said that someday he would become great - that one day he would be [[BIG SHOT]]. Desperate, he began to look for any ways to get his goods noticed, until one day a visitor approached him, who led the merchant to the long-awaited success. Other merchants began to notice that he began to leave much earlier than before. Since then, his products have been noticed more every day. He even engraved another inscription on the handle of the katana. Many traders became jealous of his popularity. Even the Empress herself provided him with a separate room in the palace. Suddenly, the one who helped him in promotion suddenly disappeared and the success began to collapse. His sales began to decline with him. Once again a failure, the merchant was evicted from the palace. When one of his acquaintances checked his room, he found only a note written in a completely incomprehensible language. Abandoned by everyone, he was forced under a bridge next to the empress's palace. After overhearing the conversation of one of the empress's servants, the merchant learned about the existence of the Great Armor in the palace and began to make plans on how to steal them in order to fulfill his dream. Rethought Spamton's lore a little, there may be errors in the text. Thanks to this version of Big Shot, I changed and came up with this story. Thanks to the author of this video !

[@baconman1778]

@@J_Crane Ok, now I'm curious about something. Did Medieval Eastern Asia have purple dyes? I know that in Europe, purple dye came from the Murex Snail and only one port had figured that out and monopolised the trade. Did China import purple dye from the same source, or did they have their own supply? Or was it just too expensive to import all that way and they just went without the colour purple in their clothing. Curse my Euro-centric education, I know nothing about Asian trade beyond Silk and Ceramics :/

The problem with spamton's vocals is because they're locked to the song itself. There's no file with only his vocals so most just leave the song alone or make their own vocals.
